"The Divine Catcher is doing business, and everyone else is waiting to get out of the way!"
Zhou Shu had just put the cast Xiuchundao into the box at hand when he suddenly heard a noise coming from outside.
He casually put on a coat and walked forward.
When they arrived at the front yard, at the entrance square, Zhang Yibei and others were confronting several head catchers wearing the uniforms of the Chief Catcher.
Zhang Yibei and others were holding hammers in their hands and shouting, "I told you, we want to see our chief waiting here. We will go in and report. Why do you break in?"
"Notification? I think you want to notify the people inside to escape quickly!"
The leading catcher sneered, "Get out of the way! Otherwise, I will treat you as obstructing official duties and shoot you without mercy!"
Several of the catchers had knives in their hands and their attitudes were very arrogant.
It’s no wonder that the catchers of the Divine Catcher Division are not the kind of local catchers. They all hold official positions, and their ranks are higher than those of Zhou Shu, the head of the workshop.
How could a group of weapon-making apprentices be taken seriously by them?
"Stop it!"
Seeing that a conflict is about to occur between the two sides, Zhang Yibei, Wu Laoliu and others will definitely suffer.
Zhou Shu quickly shouted loudly.
"Chief!"
"Chief!"
Zhang Yibei, Wu Laoliu and others shouted one after another. They took the initiative to make way for Zhou Shu to walk in front of the arresters. At the same time, they did not retreat. They still held the hammer in their hands and guarded Zhou Shu.
Behind Shu.
"What are you doing? Leave it alone and do whatever you have to do!"
Zhou Shu scolded.
"They——"
Zhang Yibei wanted to say something else, but Zhou Shu had already glared at him.
Zhang Yibei wilted and called all the workers back to the factory.
Zhou Shu turned around and said to the bosses, "I am the director of this workshop. You are here. Do you have any advice?"
"The Chief Catcher Yang Hong." The leading catcher cupped his hands and said coldly, "Are you Zhou Shu, the leader of Workshop Zero?"
"I have admired you for a long time. You are right below."
Zhou Shu Gongshou Tao.
"It's fine if it's you." Yang Hong nodded and said, "Zhou Shu, you are now suspected of being involved in a murder case. This police chief wants to take you back to assist in the investigation. Come with us."
Yang Hong waved his hand, and two catchers walked out from behind him. The two catchers walked behind Zhou Shu and grabbed Zhou Shu's arms.
"What are you doing!"
Before Zhang Yibei and others entered the factory, when they suddenly saw this scene, all the apprentices were furious, raised their hammers again, and rushed over.
"Zhang Yibei!"
Zhou Shu shouted, "You want to rebel! Don't you even listen to me? Go back!"
Zhang Yibei stopped, a struggling look appeared on his face, and he was in a dilemma.
"I'll go back with Mr. Yang to explain and then come back. You take care of your home. If anyone dares to mess around, get out of Workshop Zero!"
Zhou Shu scolded him sternly.
Zhang Yibei and others opened their mouths but made no sound.
Zhou Shu turned around and said to Yang Hong, "Yang Captou, let's go. You don't need to put on the shackles, right?"
Yang Hong squinted at Zhou Shu for a while, then waved his hand, indicating to his men to put away the shackles.
"Master Zhou couldn't be more cooperative. Let's go!"
Yang Hong waved his hand and led several arresters to escort Zhou Shu away.
"Brother Zhang, the principal has been taken away by them, what should I do?"
In the No. 0 workshop, all the forging apprentices have been making messes.
Zhang Yibei frowned, with a solemn look on his face, "The person in charge said, let us take care of our home, you take care of your home, and I will ask Da Sikong to save him."
"Da Sikong?"
Wu Laoliu frowned, "Brother Zhang, how could you see Da Sikong?"
Da Sikong is the boss of the Weapon Forging Department, and is not something that Weapon Forging Apprentices like them can easily see.
This is just the workshop of the Weapon Casting Division, the real core department of the Weapon Casting Division. It is within the capital. With Zhang Yibei’s identity, if he went to the Weapon Casting Division, he might not even be able to get through the gate.
"I'll kneel in front of the Forging Department, and I can always wait for Da Sikong!"
Zhang Yibei gritted his teeth and said.
"But the boss just said that whoever messes up will be kicked out of Workshop Zero."
Wu Laoliu said weakly.
"Even if I am kicked out, I still want to save the Lord!"
Zhang Yibei said firmly.
"I'll go with you!"
Among the weapon-making apprentices, several hands were raised.
"I can go alone. For this kind of thing, it's useless if there are more people there. Follow the instructions of the master, guard your home and wait for us to come back!"
After Zhang Yibei finished speaking, he strode towards the door of Workshop No. 0. His movements were quite a bit like the wind rustling and the water turning cold, the aura of a strong man who will never return once he is gone.
"Captain Yang, can I ask why you want to arrest me?"
Zhou Shu followed Yang Hong and other arresters back to the Shenhua Division. Along the way, Zhou Shu asked calmly.
Yang Hong looked at Zhou Shu curiously. This Zhou Shu was calm and composed from beginning to end, without any sign of nervousness.
Yang Hong has arrested countless people in his life. In his opinion, such people are either treacherous and evil, or they have never done anything wrong.
"You don't know?"
Yang Hong asked back. At this time, he had already used interrogation techniques.
"What do I know?"
Zhou Shu looked puzzled and asked, "I'm just a blacksmith in the Forging Department. I really can't think of how I can help you."
"Let me ask you, do you know Xiao Zongshui?"
Yang Hong didn't answer the question and stared at Zhou Shu without blinking.
"Master Xiao? Of course I know you."
Zhou Shu said, "I used to work in Master Xiao's Workshop No. 97. After all, he is still my immediate boss. What happened to him?"
Yang Hong looked directly into Zhou Shu's eyes and saw that Zhou Shu's eyes were clear and there was no hint of hypocrisy.
"Your original boss? I heard that you had some unpleasantness with him."
Yang Hong said.
"Yes, is it strange?"
Zhou Shu asked back, "I used to be a soldier-casting apprentice, and he was the head of the workshop. How much do you expect your subordinates to have a good impression of their boss? Isn't it normal to hate him?"
Zhou Shu took it for granted that the weapon-making apprentice would often scold the workshop master behind his back. This was an open secret.
Not only is this the case with the Zhubing Division, other yamen are also similar.
Zhou Shu's straightforwardness made Yang Hong pause.
Yes, in a place like the Weaponsmithing Division's workshop, how happy can the relationship between the Weaponsmith apprentice and the master be.
No, I was almost led astray!
"Let me ask you again, where were you last night?"
Yang Hong stared and asked.
"Last night?"
Zhou Shu said hesitantly, "Can I not say this?"
"Hmph! What do you think?"
Yang Hong snorted coldly, "When we get to our Divine Capture Division, it's not up to you to say anything or not."
"This is my private matter. It has nothing to do with the Chief Inspector, right?"
Zhou Shu said.
"Private matter?"
Yang Hong sneered, "Zhou Shu, let me remind you that you are a suspect now. It's best if you answer me honestly if I ask you anything!"
"Suspect? What have I done? I am a suspect."
Zhou Shu said, "Yang Captou, please don't accuse me wrongly. I took other people's things, but I have already returned them."
"What do you mean?"
Yang Hong frowned and said doubtfully.
Zhou Shu seemed to realize that he had let something slip, and said quickly, "Yang Captou, what exactly do you suspect about me? You should at least let me know."
"Don't interrupt. You just said you took someone else's things. What happened?"
Yang Hong scolded.
"I took someone else's piano and played it, but then I gave it back to the person afterwards. Isn't that considered stealing?"
Zhou Shu whispered.
"What a mess!"
Yang Hongdao, thieves are not under the control of their special arresting officer!
Even if this murder case did not involve a high-grade martial artist, it would not be investigated by the God Detective Division. Ordinary murder cases are handled by the local government.
Even if Zhou Shu really stole something, he wouldn't bother to care.
"Let me ask you, did you see Xiao Zongshui yesterday?"
Yang Hong said coldly.
Zhou Shu looked around and said, "Captain Yang, is he related to Chief Xiao? Is this a formal interrogation?"
"Am I asking you or are you asking me?"
Yang Hong's eyes widened, "If you don't cooperate honestly, I will give you a taste of what it's like to be punished by the God of Death!"
"Aren't I very cooperative?"
Zhou Shu shrugged his shoulders and said, "Captain Yang, you said you wanted me to know how to cooperate with your investigation, but I left with you without saying anything."
"If I don't cooperate, do you think you can take me out of the Weaponry Division's workshop?"
"It's reasonable for me to ask now."
"I don't know where this place is, and I don't know if you guys are the bosses of the Detective Division. I don't even know what you suspect about me. Is this how the Division handles cases?" Zhou Shu also changed his previous attitude and became a little tougher.
"Captain Yang, I, Zhou Shu, am also a person with status. If you want to interrogate me, you can ask someone with enough weight to do it!"
Zhou Shu's face turned cold and said, "If you don't know who to ask, then ask Commander Ma Fengzhang and Ma!"
"Ouch——"
Yang Hong laughed angrily. Are these two of us the commander-in-chief of our Divine Catcher Division?
It doesn’t matter if Zhu Chuanfeng keeps asking for Commander Ma, he is a master craftsman after all.
You, a little soldier-making apprentice, do you deserve the name of Commander Tima?
Commander Ma, does he have time to care about the business of a little forger apprentice like you?
"Zhou Shu, you are toasting and not eating, but you are punished with wine."
Yang Hong sneered and said, "A small workshop owner, does he really think of himself as a person? For a ninth-grade official, in this capital, a brick thrown can hit ten of them!"
"I'm giving you back! It seems that you won't tell the truth until you taste the severe punishment of my god, Captain!"
"In that case, I will do as you wish!"
Yang Hong shouted loudly, and the arresters were already preparing torture tools.
Zhou Shu narrowed his eyes slightly and said, "Captain Yang, you are abusing lynching. If Commander Ma finds out, he won't spare you. Don't blame me for not reminding you!"
"Really?" Yang Hong sneered, "Are you scaring me? You are still a little immature. I will ask you one last time, where were you last night, what did you do, and are there any witnesses? Tell me!"
